Congratulations @sbworkersunited on today's massive union election announcement—21 new stores are joining the union family.
☕️Coffee is better union-made. It's time for @Starbucks to stop union-busting & get to the bargaining table!

Workers from 21 Starbucks stores are filing union petitions today, in what @SBWorkersUnited says is the biggest one-day filing of the campaign so far.

BREAKING: Seven major unions have just launched a new coalition to fight for a #CeasefireNOW.
Over 9 million workers—more than half the American labor movement—belong to unions participating in the newly-formed National Labor Network for Ceasefire.

Scoop: Starbucks executives publicly said they wanted to restart negotiations with @SBWorkersUnited.
The union agreed.
Then Starbucks stopped responding, and kept union-busting.

We're disappointed to see the Human Rights Campaign (@HRC) give Starbucks employer recognition in their Corporate Equality Index.
Companies that do wrong by queer & trans workers should NOT be awarded as a fair employer.
Let's dive into some LGBTQ+ workers' ACTUAL experiences🧵
ALT Starbucks recently received a 100% score on the Human Rights Campaign's Corporate Equality Index. Here's what actual trans and queer workers have to say about their experience working at Starbucks."

One more thing…
We couldn't end the #WomensConvention2023 without taking to the streets! We stand in solidarity with Starbucks workers here in Milwaukee and all across the country, in their fight for fair wages and better working conditions. ✊

If Starbucks won't let their workers unionize, we won't serve their coffee at our convention. Simple as that.

Good morning to everyone (except littler mendelson lawyers)
The hearing for our national ULP over Starbucks' refusal to bargain resumes today in Seattle. Things will be slower-going this week than the opening briefs in September, but we will keep you posted on developments :)

The California legislature has passed a big batch of bills this year designed to empower workers and consumers.
But while Gov. Gavin Newsom has signed some of them, he’s ultimately vetoed key protections that could have helped employees, tenants and patients.
Thread.
👏👏👏 boo on you @GavinNewsom
TEAMSTERS TO NEWSOM: START WORKING FOR WORKING PEOPLE, NOT WALL STREET
The #Teamsters condemn the latest actions by California Gov. @GavinNewsom after he vetoed Senate Bill 799 over the weekend. The legislation would have extended unemployment insurance benefits to union members who are on strike or being locked out by their employer.
The @CAgovernor’s Saturday veto represents the second pro-worker bill he has rejected in the past 15 days, following his veto of Assembly Bill 316, a bill requiring human operators in all commercial vehicles over 10,000 pounds.
“Gavin Newsom once again vetoed a pro-union bill in California and he did it when he hoped no one was looking,” said Teamsters General President Sean M. O’Brien @TeamsterSOB. “Union members have long memories, and the Teamsters know who our real friends are. Gov. Newsom needs to stop working for Wall Street and start working for the hundreds of thousands of constituents he owes his success to. Gavin is leaving working people behind at a time when they need more protections than ever to preserve and improve their livelihoods, benefits, and wages. His recent actions are shameful.”
“It’s been the summer of the strike in Southern California this year,” said Chris Griswold, Teamsters International Vice President At-Large and President of Teamsters Joint Council 42 in Los Angeles. “Gavin Newsom loves to say that he supports unions, but talk is cheap. He’s now proving that repeatedly. If Gov. Newsom was a real ally of organized labor, he would sign legislation that empowers workers.”
“In the face of increasing corporate greed, the Teamsters will keep fighting for laws that protect workers and our jobs – including laws mandating human operators in trucks and UI benefits for workers on strike,” said Jason Rabinowitz, President of Teamsters Joint Council 7. “We are taking on the long fight against the greedy tech companies and unprincipled politicians. The Teamsters and all working people will prevail because we have justice and the power of millions of organized workers on our side.” #1u

As Starbucks workers continue to put pressure on Campion and other members of the board, a HUGE thank you to UCLA students (and students everywhere!) who are helping us in this fight for a better workplace and a union contract!

The organizers of Trump's scab event, the National Right to Work Foundation, are also working with Starbucks to try to decertify our unions. Starbucks -- which has spent most of its 50-year history pretending to be progressive -- is, once again, in lockstep with Trump.
